So the old devil was a sexual animal keen on looking at pornography. Osama Bin Laden may have been the world's most wanted terrorist but basically he was a low level hypocrite. There are many debates about whether pornography is a good, bad or indifferent thing for the human being. But saying that you adhere to high moral standards, such as Islamic belief in sexual integrity, and then do something completely different is, well, hypocritical. Bin Laden spent his days lambasting America and other western countries over sexual immorality. It's one thing to fall from grace, be tempted by sexual gratification, it's quite another to be an inveterate hypocrite. Was he boozing as well, and living life on the hog? Oh, heaven forfend!

Whatever the case may be, I am so glad that OBAMA did it for us, finally! How many years have we been waiting for this great day?? Now that Osama Bin Laden is dead... let us hope that we can call this as end of terrorism :-) But then, I am seeing in the news these days that Pakistan themselves are in trouble due to the terrorists. How true it is to say that, If you choose violence to kill people, violence is gonna kill you!

I think the short answer is for everyone to stop the violence. However, that may be too simplistic in this world and a more nuanced approach has to be found. Countries and peoples have a right to defend themselves against aggressors. They also have the right to be helped in that defence by allies. But they don't have the right to usurp another nation's sovereignty. I can't abide Iran in its present state, but I cannot agree to an invasion just to help out pro-democracy, pro-human rights citizens. The way to stop aggressors is to seek legal remedies in the international court and to ostracise them in world affairs.

People are still trading with Iran, still supporting the regime. Forked tongues tend to get misunderstood.
